Vader: A Star Wars Theory Fan Series (2018)
A fan film on IMDB so I'm going to judge it like a real film.
If I were to score this as a fan film in comparison to other fan films it would be a 9. However, this is not a "fan film" website for scoring a movie. No I'm not just some hater. I actually like that this guy had the guts to spend his money on a movie for his fans. From a non fan film perspective it's a miss. Yeah for a fan film it has good effects but not for a "real" film. Yes for a fan film it has good acting. But from the perspective of a real movie the acting is not on point. For example the voice of palpatine for a fan film it was decent but for a "real" film it was horrific. I thought I was listening to an old man with larengitis and a slight accent. I could do this for every actor but I won't. The story itself isn't very compelling at all to the casual viewer. You really don't know what is actually going on if you don't know Star Wars. You could start any other Star Wars real movie from the start without knowing much about it and still be aware of what's going on. Yes it is difficult to do that in 12 ish minutes but the fan film fails to do so as do all fan films. This review will get great backlash I'm sure. I have nothing against anyone who was on the team for this production. Sometimes the truth must be told as the fanboys judgment is often blinded.
